GIA Certified Appraiser . . .
About Our Appraiser’s Schedule
Our appraiser will be
onsite May 1, 2013, May 29, 2013, and June 26, 2013. Please call or stop by the
store to make an appointment. Our appraiser allows 20 minutes per item. Therefore,
if someone has six pieces of jewelry for evaluation, then two hours are needed for
that appointment. In addition, the appraiser performs jewelry appraisals onsite,
complete with digital photographs, which are accepted by most insurance companies.
Should I Bring My Receipts?
Any documentation that establishes ownership, item identification,
maintenance, and even past appraisals is helpful; however, each item is analyzed
on its own merits at the time of the appointment.
